Quick Guide
Creating Arpeggios
The Arpeggio function lets you create arpeggios (broken chords) by simply pressing
the notes of the chord. For example, you could play the notes of a triad—the root, third,
and fifth—to trigger interesting phrases. This feature can be used for music production
as well as performance.
1
Press the [ARPEGGIO] button to turn on
the Arpeggio function.
2
Press a note or notes to trigger Arpeg-
gio.
The Arpeggio phrase differs depending on the
number of pressed notes and the area of the key-
board.
When Split is on, Arpeggio is applied only to the
Split Voice. When Split is off, Arpeggio is applied
to the Main and Dual Voices. Arpeggio cannot be
applied to the Split and Main/Dual Voices simulta-
neously.
For instructions on selecting a Split Voice, refer to
page 36.
Note that selecting one of the Main Voices 260–
269 will call up the appropriate Split Voice.
3
To turn off the Arpeggio, press the
[ARPEGGIO] button again.
The most suitable Arpeggio Type is automatically
selected when you select a Main Voice, but you can
easily select any other Arpeggio Type.

ton for longer than a second.

onds, followed by the current Arpeggio Type

Arpeggio type
An Arpeggio Type List is provided in the separate
Data List.
Triggering the Arpeggio
• Selecting a Voice number between 230 and 269 will turn
on Arpeggio automatically.
• When you select a Voice between 260 and 269, play a
key to the left of the Split Point, since Arpeggio is applied
only to the Split Voice.
• When an optional Footswitch (page 13) connected to the
SUSTAIN jack is pressed, the Arpeggio will continue to
play after the note is released (page 39).
